Palm announced two new software providers for Foleo: LogMeIn & Wind River
,----[ Quote ]
| By building the Foleo on an open Linux-based platform and publishing the
| tools developers need, Palm hopes to establish a vibrant developer community
| to create new applications that extend the mobile companion's built-in
| capabilities. LogMeIn demonstrates the ease with which exciting technology
| and applications can be ported to the Palm Foleo mobile companion.

Hands-On With Palm's Linux-based Foleo
,----[ Quote ]
| I spent some time today with Palm's not-yet-released Foleo at the LinuxWorld
| conference here in San Francisco. Due out this summer, the $600
| not-quite-a-laptop device is small and light and might be of interest for
| some Treo-using mobile professionals, but most people would likely be much
| better served by a regular notebook.

Palm Foleo with Linux threatens the Laptop
,----[ Quote ]
| The Palm Foleo is joining a list of MID (Mobile Internet Devices) like the
| Nokia N800 and Asus Eee that use a lightweight version of Linux but the main
| advantage of the Foleo is its instant on feature. While traditional “Linux”
| may be too difficult for the average user to handle, these highly integrated
| implementations of Linux have no problem being adopted by the masses. That
| could pose a problem for Microsoft in the long run if these devices ever get
| widespread adoption.

Palm Foleo First Thoughts

| If a picture is worth a thousand words, then a video should be worth a

| overview of the Foleo, which will hopefully give you a better idea of
| what it will be like to use the first mobile companion yourself.

Live from LinuxWorld: the Palm Foleo
,----[ Quote ]
| Currently, developers can build apps for the device by signing up with the
| Palm Developer Network; one of the guys at the stand told me that a free SDK
| should be available later on. Unfortunately, the Palm folks haven’t built an
| X server for the machine yet, so porting graphical programs could be out the
| question. That said, with only 128MB RAM, you wouldn’t want to be running
| OpenOffice.org on this thing anyway...
